Pluto, the long-awaited anime adaptation of Naoki Urasawa’s 2003 manga based on Osamu Tezuka’s Astro Boy, is finally here and it’s amazing. The eight-episode series is a fastidiously faithfull retelling of the original story, following the globe-spanning adventure of a robot detective named Gesicht investigating a mysterious series of killings in a futuristic world where humans and robots live side by side. It’s a genuinely beautiful and engaging series, garnering effusive praise from none other than Hideo Kojima himself, and easily one of the most impressive anime to premiere this year.
